@Isaak : Edit your description, add that this map is for the 2d melee contest,


To Reviewers / Mods:
don´t moderate this map, is for the 2d melee contest, add the proper tag.

Your description is pretty weak. While I know I am not supposed to moderate this resource, I still hope you can at least fix that and use a proper melee description (like number of creep camps, shops and so on).

No change in resources status has been made

Always check/recheck the Map Submission Rules! (Map Submission Rules)

These will help make a better description:

Screenshots could attract more players to download your work. Make the best of them.

A credits list is required where the names of the resource (models, skins, icons, spells, sound etc.) authors are mentioned along with the specific resource. It would be a luxury to have links leading to the used resources. Credits in the Quest Log would be appreciated.

A changelog in the first post would be helpful to reviewers and notify fans about the newest implementations to your map.

Also try to upload some screen of the map, to sell it.

I really love the way the map looks, and it seems balanced for the most part, but there is one crucial flaw that I see: Red player has WAY more lumber in his base, while blue has to "expand" north for lumber.
Also, the bases could be walled off by using the town hall as part of the wall, but there is not much space left behind the wall to build Tier 2 buildings, especially for elves, who have to eat trees to make space, and again, in the blue base there is water where there should be trees, so no expanding your base towards the edge of the map like red can.

Thanks a lot for the feedback guys! I added some more info to the description, however i can not make any changes to the map itself before the contest deadline since i am not at home for the next few days

Great map, melee players will really love this one, because it has the 3 'classic' melee map factors that players love

1) Green / Bright - Check
2) Lot's of space - Check
3) Attractive creeps (ease of creeping) - Check

That's why Twisted Meadows is so adored,

THis will be a fan favourite for sure among ladder players.

What I would change:

- The bottom expo in the middle, I think should have more space above it or goldmine/creeps move a tad down, to allow that to be a path plauyers can walk through without aggroing or creeping the actual camp.
- I'm thinking of adding a camp either side of the map somewhere. An additional creep camp per player , not sure where though
- SOme area's you can see the 'black' outline/border of the map. This should be fixed, as Blizzard doesn;'t like players seeing this.

That's all I can think of for now, but it just my quick thoughts. I'll more to this later

I messed around with it a little and gotta say i really like it. it's been a real long time since i played ladder so i won't try to comment on balance but the maps i liked when i played a lot were maps with a fair bit of open terrain, mainly creeps that sleep and that don't come after you a lot when you're just trying to get from A to B. This map fulfills that and looks good doing it, i feel pretty sure i would have it on thumbs up if it were a ladder option.
